Strike King Crankbaits: Tournament Winners at Great Prices

The Red Eye is Up and Running at This Year’s Big Tournaments

Strike King CrankbaitsStrike King Crankbaits make one of the hottest crankbaits of the year, the Strike King Red Eye Shad 1/2 ounce lipless, vibrating shad. The Red Eye Shad has been on of the winning fishing lures at several of this year’s huge tournaments. At first sight, the Red Eye might remind you of a Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap, but the similarity ends with the appearance. Strike King crankbaits come in numerous sizes and colors and are adorned with large, bright eyes of red and gold. There are more than thirty-five different colors of these bass lures, just in the half-ounce size alone! Other varieties include the Red Eye Shad 1/4 ounce and Red Eye Shad 3/4 ounce. That allows you when fishing with crankbaits to either downsize a little, or to scale up to pull giants out of the water. (more…)

Deep Diving Crankbaits for Greater Depths of Fishing Enjoyment

Deep diving crankbaits are a real surprise to bass. Designed for fishing at much greater depths than bass normally see crankbaits, these special bass fishing lures can suck them in and bring a lot of enjoyment to your fishing excursions.

For Norman, Deep Diving is Normal

Deep Diving CrankbaitsDeep diving crankbaits have been made very popular by Norman, a fishing lures manufacturing company. The Norman DD22 is probably the most popular in the line. As the name suggests, the target area for the DD22 is for deep diving at about 22 feet. There are two models: the Standard Norman DD22 and the Norman Suspend DD22. That gives anglers two ways and two techniques to catch fish at this depth. The Standard version dives pretty quickly to that depth and if stopped slowly starts to float back up. The Suspend version dives to that depth and then lingers, lurking around without moving much. It slowly wanders around “looking” for fish. When you begin cranking it in, the Suspend version starts moving again. The one disadvantage we see to the suspend version is that if it gets stuck in a limb it won’t float back up where the Standard one will.

Both of the Norman models come in many different colors. The Suspend model comes in seven. The Standard DD22 comes in almost fifty different models. There is a color for everybody and every fish. (more…)
